tore on the aubject i , the appointment of Stied. Committees would obviate the evil. He was persuaded that it would not be possible ,to have a Select Committee case ; the veriotes; deniandslipou the .time of professional, _mercantile, and other .111enshers, it'sould, in his opinion, present insuperable obstacles to such an arraugeinent. The Hon, Menaber'.baa hnoWn many instances in Which ,the ma jority in Conirnittees.on Private Nils had voted in utter ignorance m l' thp,real merits of the question; and that nothing could he more inwortent than, if potiible, to secure the means of obtain ing a just end impartial decision on the Private Bina introduced into the House.—(The lion. Member concluded by moving the Resolutions given to our Paper of yesterday.) Mr. YATES PEEL seconded the Motion. Colonel DAVIES agreed with the.two Honourable Members that nothing.ceuld be more inconvenient than the pre sent tootle Of conducting - Private Bins. 'lle conduct of Members in 'Private CoMmittee Rooms had been.in many instances exceed iegly disgraceful. At the same time he must give the proposed I Resolutiona his most etrenuous opposition., If a great evil existed it was better to leave it uncorrected 'than to supply its place by an other evil of greeter maguitude.' Nething could, in his opinion, be more inconvenient and more cumbermoeue than the machinery of dente Resolutions. Firitt, with reaped to , the lista of s hundred and•twenty Members, sixty of whom were to sit on these private Cmanoittees, and sixty not ; how were they to know which sixty were. to sit, and - which to be omitted ? As to thedifficulty of making Select Committees, he would wish to know how the-Cote mirrors contemplated by the Honourable GentleMito would he sup plied. By the sixth Resolution, any person eumplaining of the decision of the Private Committee had a right to appeal - to the /louse ; anti no discretion whateveentas left to the lionso on the subject. It was true that the complainant; was to deposit five hundred prititell with the Clerk ,of the Fees, for the payment of any costs which might be awarth4 agtiinst turn ; hut hew did that proposition accord with the declaration the other day, that the House had no right to bind any one it, a penalty? lle doubted whether, if Coate were awarded, the House bad the power of forcing them. • . Mr. MABERLY strongly reprobated the existing system; but maintained that the apeointanent of 'Select Coln.. mittees would be prefcrable to the proposed measures. Lord AI THORP 64d no doubt that some remedy was necessary, and was of opinion that the proposed ineaaute would be much better than the appointment of Select ,Conimit teee. lie was decidedly of opinion that the 'Re s olutions ' Wild h e tried. Mr. Alderman WAITII M . AN observed, tb - .. ft t ( had been universally aektloWieSilled). the present v.. - notle of consti totieg Private Committees Was a great evil i s.ud t h ett - ore that he felt obliged to the Honnursble ( ~ 0 0 ,,,A n fi n . proposing a iemedy, although he (Mr. Alden ne n w aithmen) thought that it was one byno means adeoe A te to the: purpose irtired. In the first place, to agree to tlie Resolutions, wee by implication to pass a severe censure on themselves, as having been guilty of gross, scandalous, etn, l , partial conduet. That such had been the .case, however, r.eith the lust ,Parliament, he by no means doubtod, Lie linen/ very tvell, that if he alluded to the present Parliament, he ;oust be very, limited in his ternerkt. But, he might speak' l ats opinion loudly of the dead, although it was not permitted to him to do so of the living. He especially entitled to one very serious grievance' under which he had himself buffered. A Petition was presented by the city of Londen against a Bill which they, declared would be highly injurious to them. In the first instance an objection was made to hear Counsel on the part of the City, because it was stated' that tint Bill in question affected traders in genera), and that the City of London had no particular interest in it. At length it was Odd by the Commit tee, that as a matter of grace and favour they would hear wit nesses against the • Bill, He (Mr. Alderman Waithman) not much liking that, demanded it as a right. The Committee had at length consented to grant him se a favour what he had de manded as a right, and what they had denied' to others. He had, however, protesttel against the proceeding, and had 'determined not to exercise the right at all -if .he could, not exercise it entirely and completely, and he ,aceordingly withdrew. If that , Commit tee. had been composed greatly of Shareholders and Directors of a Compaq, what would he raid of injustice and partiality ? Veal it not have been said, that the Members who composed it were totally undeserving dl their seats iii ,that House?

Tie Approved of the present Itesolutions as an experi- Mental measure. _ _ Upon the SPEAKER putting the Resolutions from the Chair, Y Mr. MABERL considered, that the best mode of proceeding would be by the appointment of Committees in the same way that Election Committees Were chosen. The Resolution was then put and carried, as were the second, third; fourth, and fifth'Reseilutions. Upon the sixth Resolution being put (see conclusion of Mr. Littleton's speech), • Mr..l-lUME asked whether the party complaining should have the right of petitioning at once, or subsequently to the Report of the Conunitte, Mr. LITTLETON said that no petition should be presented until after the Report of the Conithittee.. The sixth, seventh, and eighth Resolutions were then put and agreed to.. Upon the ninth Resolution .(calling: 'Upon the tomplaining parties to deposit_the !Mil of 5001. in the hands of the Clerk of the Fees for the Payment, Sce.) being read by Mr. Speaker, ,Mr:G.,LAMB suggested the propriety of post, poning that Resolution fur the present. He thought that the House ought to pause, and consider whether they had the pOWer of enforcing wresolution for the payment of such t sum. Mr. C. W. WYNNE thought that the House had the power 'of deciding, that its certain specified cases,,no petitions should be presented to it but on certain conditions, and then the party petitioning against the vote of a Committee would be hound to do so under those 'conditions. • Mt. LITTLETON . felt the propriety of postpon ing the Resolution for the p'resettt ; and, with the leave of the House, he would withdraw it. Mr. Secretary PEEL mid a few words across the Table. Mr. SHADWELL (as we understood), said the party petitioning might be obliged to tip n document, by irhich he would bind himself `to abide the awatil and regulations of the lfouse. After a few worilt. from a Member under the Gallery, Mr. tirrnoroN said, that Us the 'Resolution trot likely to come into immediate operation, he shotdd most willingly postpone it for the present —Resolution postponed. The next "Resolution, naming the Knighted the Shire, &c. ke.; vilo were to compose the " Committee of Appeals," pur suant to the Fifth nesolution, was then put and agreed to. DOMINGO: . POSTAGE DUTIES. On the motion of Mr. HERRIES, the House resolved itself into a Committee upon the St. Domingo Postage Duties. The Hon. Member stated, 'that in consequence of the increased communication between . South America and the West Indies, it became. necessary, in the course of the recess, to regu lute the rates of . postage -.between those countries; and his Ma. jetty's Ministers now sought the assent of Parliament to these regulations, by which the Postage Duties were assimilated to" those with Buenos Ayres. Mr. HUME wished to• take that opportunity of noticing what he considered a very great, and, he conceived, un called for inconvenience to which our colonies were subjected.— Last year an Act had passed in which be had some share, declar .ing that all newspapers Should be sent to our colonies upon pay , went of three-halfpence, and should be received froM thence, if unstariiped, upon payment of 2d. But there existed a,clause by which, unless the paper was sent on the day it was printed, it ,was charged the full postage.. This he conceived was an unjust regulation ; he, himself, for instance, often received from the country, papers containing information which it would he most desirable to send abroad; but he could not do, so without in curring the full postage, as he colds! not Bens( them the day they were printed, and it wa diffieult, if not impossible, to have the matter they contltincd reprinted i in London papers. if there was any inconvenience or expellee incurret° by their carriage the case would be different ; but when We bad vessels of 150 tone and 209 tons, employed in carrying a single hag of letters to Ja maica and other islands, it was too nuich to make the overcharge, or else deprive our Colonies of a rriassof useful information. He thought it would he better to adopt the principle acted upon by the United States, and allow' the free transfer, not only of news... papers, but also of pamphlets and other periodical publications, through lice territories. Mr. 4ERRIES thought, that the observations of the lion. Member would come better under the notice of ,the House when the Bill .was introduced ; he (Mr. lierries) should then be prepared to answer him. After a few remarks from Mr. HUME, : After a few. words from Mr. U. U. DAWSON, ~, • , Mr. lIERRIES said it was • clear, that if papers were first sent from the different parts of the country free, and afterwardsltOutto!the the same way, it wax clear 1 *somber of points iwitild be' circulated, close allow a Allowed n to ,a and t h ere by both the revenue, and the interests of the newspaper `proprietors would be injured. He should be ready to enter' more into this su b je ct on a future occasion. Mr. WAItI3URTON thought the greater number of readers the Newspapers had, the snore advantageous it would be to the Proprietors., The .ftesolutious, were then agreed to, and she. House having resumed, read a first time, and ode'lleedfltoillbeofpiriiindteetirity was brought 0, Adjourned at a Quarter-pant &rep o'Cloek. FRENCH REPUBLIC. N.B. Tho following is one of the Proclamations issued by order of the late sanguinary Victor Hughes ; the allusions in it to England are amusingly curious. _ —...--- LIBERTY. , PROCLAMATIOS. EQUALITY. The Delegates of the Representatives of the French Republic to the Wind Ward Islands, to all the Inhabitante of the Island of St. Martin. . . The French Republic After conquering Holland, couldthe aim have. blotted i t out from the number' of Powers in Europe, but of the French in 'entering armed into the interior part of those Provincea, was only to restore the`Batana to liberty ; to deliver them from the servitude in which their ambitious Stadtholder held them chained, and to die from, their territories. the vile sa tellites of the coalized Despots, who, under the pretext of protect ing those rich countries, sought only to annihilate them, which they. had the more at. heart to . Nk..e.ute,' as they could not but know, wit tOI soon as the Dutch Patriots saw themselves eupported, they would make the greatest attempts to be revenged on that coaliti on which had forted them to take a part in a war, the prineiples, whereof are so contrary to their 'Constitution. , The English, that nation of mongers and robbers, whose am bition is as immodera t e as their p ride, rejoiced at having reached to the ~nd of their wishes, when, after having exhausted the for- tunes, and having ravaged the county of 'the timid Dutchmen, Oily saw the French masters of the same, believing that the last would. put. an end to their existence, by sinking, their Country under the water. The sordid Ministers of that mercantile nation, Albion, - had already calculated the riches of the prizes that this vevents wrom as going to procure, through the great number of Dutch easel f the East and West Indies, thateheitered in.their ports ; a truth which has been too well realized. Private letters from Holland, make mention of several vessels of war, and a great number of merchant men arrested in the different ports of those pirates. Weighing then, the infamous conduct which the English have held in all countries, sullied by their stay, as well in Europe as America;---the robberies and unheard of vexations which they have committed in the French Islands; their depravity and in humanity in the taking, imprisoning, and transporting the iuhabi tante of all seat.* and ages, the emnaUcet recital of which makes one shudder I declare, in consequence of the power and instructions dele gated to The by the Representatives of the French Republic to the Windward Islands, that we same to this .

VIttST DAYS ----- Monday being the day appointed for the sale of the ef fects of the late lessee of Drury-lane Theatre, a great crowd assembled at his residence, No. 9 Stratfordidace; Oxford 'road. There was but a sprinkling of ladie4 and gentle men, and here and there NVIIS to be seen one of the frater nity gazing at the evidence of what the manager was in his retirement. 'The catalogue *as minute and - dramatic in its deseription of the partieulati of what was about to be disposed of, and displayed all the taste and candour of the The tUreittire lyioinsgenPiat sold at high prices, although i mueh of it had seen " better days," of which the dining ! tables and chairs bore ample testimony. A. model of the Crucifixion in a jaPanned ease, lined' with crimson cloth, glazed, and enclosed by folding dam's; bickight`foiir guineas, but not without a Oesperate effort of Mr. Robins, of. Regent-street, whO officiated as auctioneer. As soon, as ads Was knocked down, a gentleman observed, that " it was no Jew that got that bargain." , Why not r said one with , a mourning bead; " you mistake, friend,. why Should not we buy a Crucifixion ? Youanay put any thing or any body in any shape you please, what ham will it do to buy to sell again ?" A Bystaader—" Sell again t'Why, you would not only sell the crucifix, but him who was upon it."-4Loud laughter.) A George HI. plaster bust, two flower-pots, and two face screens, went off in a lot for I/. 3s. A plaster bust of Shakspeare on two books with scroll, went off at 225., although Mr. Robins assured the eatnnany that its first cost was 15 guineas. TUE SUITS OF BRASS AND STEEL ARMOUR. Those magnificent suits, exhibited at the Coronation of Geo. IV., and at numerous Lord Mayor's shows, attracted the attention of nil. Mr. Robins, in introdueing the first suit to the Company, observed, that a inure splendid suit of modern armour could not be held up to dazzle the eyes of the beholders: It was worthy of a place in the hall or gallery of the first nobleman or . gentleman in this or any other,' country. It had cost originally 300 guineas, and he hofied he might be allowed to say 100 guineas for it. -(A dead silence.) A great deal might be made by letting it out for hire upon great public occasions, such as- the Lord Mayor's feasts. (Loud laughter.) A 'voice. " His Lordship does not want armour, he's armed so strong, in honesty. He only wants forks." (A laugh.) Another voice. " And a little good wine, &c." (Continued laughter.) A third Voice. , The men in armour won't appear no more. The people at the other end of the town says they. won't have no, more on ; besides, the queer way people was treated last time, will prevent people from going to such a consarn again ; for my- part, my: wife shall never show her nose there again." (Loud laughter.) Mr. Robins waited some time in expectation of a bid ding, at length a gentleman offered 20 guineas. Mr. Robins said, that he would give 40 guineas for it himself. He did so, and became the purchaser, without a competitor. The. other suit of armour was purchased by Mr. Robins, at the same A gentlemania judge of matters of the kind, observed, that the latter suit could not be made ( to order) under the sum of, 400 guineas. , SECOND. DAY. The sale was well attended, but the artieles went off no better than upon the preceding day. 'A, gentleman, who took great interest in the disposal of the various articles, saidthat Twits much annoyed at hearing of the !Rale of the day before, although he well knew that there was no alternative, as the trustees had found it absolutely necessary to proceed to the hammer, in order to be able to discharge demands, in consequence of an advance of money for the payment of several small debts. It had been declared by one of the trustees that the debt due to him alone amounted to 5,0001. It Will be recollected, that several -months ago Ith tt6 , count of a meeting of the creditors of Mr. bliston ap peared in this paper, and a very melancholy Statement of his finances wits exhibited in that account. Thig C übj ec t was the theme amongst some persons in the house yester day, and although little sympathy was shown, there ►ire some, who thought that Elhston was not fairly dealt with by those who were in the haliit of bepraising The wine.cellar of the poor .manager, was a source of no little amusement to the company. In the :catalogue was mentioned . " a quantity ofyin e ,bottles at per dozen!" " only bottles. And iet,' said a bystander, "he was a good judge !" , " Yes, said another,. "of other people's wine he • was an excellent judge, .but of his OW7I the worst: in the world. The , moment he raised a glass of his own to his mouth, he'd say. The finest' Stuff in -the world, by —!' if it was rank poison."•—(Langhter.) A Gentleman" The fact was, his wine 'Was a mere hand-to-mouth wine." " Why, he paid 00s. a dozen for it to my knowledge," said another. " Ay," said a third, " but some people have a knack of paying 305., in the pound without . getting any thing good except good law."— (Laughter.) • _ . _ From this subject some of the company passed off to a dissertation on the very natural tiu bject of gaols. "No fewer," said , one of thee, " than 234 persons yielded to the King's Bench prison on the first day of term, in order that their bail should not be fixed with the debts and costs." They all agreed that a gaol never paid a debt yet, and were called away from reflections upon the late imprisonment of Mr. Elliston by a summons to attend the library sale. The first lot put up was "Drury-lane play bills, from the 4th October, 1819, to the 26th July, 1824, half bound, 6 vols." The lot was knocked down, after some jokes amongst the Jews, at 20s. Three volumes of the Haymarket Theatre play bills were knocked down at 10s. ".Johnson's and Stevens's Slitikspeare," 13 vols. (12 and 14 wanting), with vols. of the Arabian Nights Entertainments," were knocked down at 21s. only. It was rather extraordinary that there was not one set of books complete, if there happened to be a number of vols. It must agonize the feelings of the late manager of Drury lane Theatre to find that the lot which his whole theatrical. government proves that he must have valued more than 411 the rest put together, went off for little or nothing comparatively. "Isis Spectacles," ballets in manuscript, bound in calf, 21 vols. went off for 41 6s. " Clarissa Harlow," and " Sir C. Grandison," fell down together (15 volumes) at 138. " Le Sacre et Couronnement de Louis ;" " Present State of Great Britain ;" " West os the Resurrection ;" and " The History of the Life of Louis," went off at 6s. 34 volumes of iniseellanice brought only 355. 85 copies of Memorials to the Lord Chancellor, from the Theatres Drury-lane and Covent-garden, with Mr. Elliston's " Letter," were knocked down at 9s. 6d. 260 coloured lithographic prints, ,from the opera o f ' Gi ovann i in London, fell at ss. f.id, The lust lot includ e d t:vnasinttieeqilaalt.icalidnw.d,a, e a x:e s rn s. al 6( y L iew T o h f e D a r t i t i c r t y i - o ht ne n e e r T ., h i Fa l:o a t ud a wreck behind."

From the Elate. OcT. 26.—A fire which broke out on the 11th, in the tower newly built at Eski-Serai, wad the presage of new horrors' to the inhabitants of this capital: The. Goterninent limited its vengeance to the punishment df the guards of the tower, and thought It un necessary to be at further trtible: In the mean time, the spies of the Semskier apprised him that meetings that took place at the houses of the keepers of the royal sheep- , folds, which belong .to the Janissaries, and to which no at tention had been paid at the period of the corm - notions in June, When they were perfectly quiet: - Two thousand five hundred disciplined ttdops were iennediately sent against those sheep-folds, and against neatly 3,000 indi , •viditals, who' formerly belonged to the JanistaiieSi and amongst whom were found a number of workmen and. cooks belonging to the Seraglio. One thousand five hun dred of them were executed,' the remainder were sent to Asia.. It was discovered by the confessions of those men, that a conspiracy had been organised by the former Janis saries, who were to assemble in great numbers on the Asiatic side, for the purpose of forming ajunction with the malcontents of the capital, while the fire was occupying the attention of the Grand Seignior. As' soon as the Sultan learrietl these particulars he sent to the Pacha of the Asiatic shore, orders to exterminate the Janissaries who he might find there, and ordered the Commandant of the harbour to prohibit any embarkation of the malcontents on the Asiatic side. Boats, well arined,have continued cruising between the two shores since that time. Meantime the Sul tan appeared to despise the conspiracy, and the Govern ment even appeared to view these events' as insignificant. During the executions the Sultan reviewed the newly disciplined corps of I3ostandgis, and when it is considered that this . corps has often shown symptoms ,of discontent, the courage and energy of the Prince cannot fail to be ad s mired. In spite of this new triumph, fear of the future is painted on every countenance, and, it is said, that the Seraskicr especially, who is the chief object of the hatred of the malcontents, is exceedingly uneasy:— The difficulties of the Porte are apparent, from other circumstances. The Reis Effendi, who Very lately beard ed M. de Minziacky, is quite changed in his manners-s-- has opened communications with him, and has informed him, that the Porte, wishing to close those bonds of amity which unite them with Russia, has broken off all connection with the Agent of Persia, Daoud Paella. The Sultan has .a natural detestation of Per sian Agent, because he is a Christian, and because he has brought instructions, or full powers, in which the Schalr of Persia takes the title of Tudischah. The. Reis Effendi has not seen:him for some days. It is to be observed, that the Porte has received intelligence of the defeats of the i Persians in Georgia, and that it is quite happy at having accepted the Ultimatum, and thus escaped the arms of Russia. It is supposed that Daoud Pacha will very soon quit Constantinople, and return to Teheran. All his at tempt% to see M. de Minziacky; or to obtain's passport to Potersburgh, have proved abortive. He has visited Mr. Stratford Canning twice; 'but his visits have not been re turned. The Consul-General of • England gave him a breakfast at Pere, but no diplomatic personage was pre sent at it. The change of behaviour in the Porte to Daoud Pasha and M. de Minziacky, in consequence of the changed aspect ,of affairs in the. Caucasus, is a trait truly Oriental.—Gazette qf Augsburg.
